Urgent - What headache treatments can I use ?

[Normsnockers]

Am at work with splitting headache and can't remember what I can and can't take for a bit of relief.

Secretary will be going out on errands soon and I'm too lazy to go myself so hoping for a quick response guys.

you can take paracetamol....

[EnidVonTeese]

solpadeine (has paracetamol, codeine and caffeine in) if really desperate and only occasionally.

[Normsnockers]

Thanks, am almost squinting with pain above my left eye and I never ever normally get a headache.

How many weeks are you?

i got horrendous headaches in pregnancy. also made my migraines re-appear

My Gp prescribed me migraleve

[Normsnockers]

I'm almost 16 weeks.

co-codamol (codeine and paracetamol) is very safe in pregnancy and I've had to take it for migraines this pregnancy, it works a WHOLE lot better than just paracetamol.

Thanks Hockeymum,

Took some paracetomol but it only took the edge of it and I had to just wait until it wnet at tea time.

Will remember the co-codamol if it recurs
